Drone User Study 2023

The Drone User Study is a survey open to all drone operators. Its purpose is to gain a greater and more in-depth understanding of the needs of drone operators worldwide, determine how operators currently use their drones, and give them the opportunity to share their collective views on the future of the drone industry.

We received an overwhelming response and support from the drone user community, with over 3,100 individual responses recorded from across the globe.

All drone users, regardless of whether they were a current Coverdrone customer or not, were invited to participate in the study. The only restriction was that they needed to be a drone user to take part.

With the drone industry evolving and growing at such a rapid rate, the invaluable insight we gain from the Drone User Study results allows us to really get to the heart of how operators are currently using their drones and gives us the opportunity to evaluate drone operators’ existing and emerging needs alongside our own product offering to ensure our products and services continue to meet those needs. We will also be proactively sharing the high-level results with our industry peers.

Coverdrone has, and always will, be committed to working in the best interests of our customers and the wider drone industry. We firmly believe the more people who truly understand the needs and wants of drone operators, the better!

Absolutely! The intention is to re-run the Drone User Study on an annual basis to explore and report on how drone usage and the needs of drone operators evolve over time.
